If you believed the Ms Pacman cocktail arcade game was in the World Video Game Hall of Fame, you'd be wrong. It has been on the shortlist for entry -- it was on the shortlist both this year and last year. It hasn't made the cut though.
In fact, zero 1980s arcade games joined the Hall of Fame this past year. Nevertheless, the judges failed to select a timeless 1990s arcade game. This was in addition to games console gamesconsole, a mid-70s text-based adventure game, and a game which has been packed free in the Microsoft Windows operating platform.
Classic 1980s (and Pre-1980s) Arcade Games around the Shortlist but What Makes the Cut

The World Video Game Hall of Fame is handled by The Strong's National Museum of Play.
These are some of the great 1980s arcade games that have cut in the Last hurdle this year:
• Ms Pac-Man -- a finalist for two Decades now so, hopefully, It Is Going to get the recognition it deserves in future years
• Centipede -- the 1981 award winning classic from Atari that provided gameplay similar to Space Invaders but with bugs instead of spaceships
• Asteroids -- the brilliant multidirectional shooter published by Atari in 1979 that was among the very first arcade games to Attain widespread popularity

What about the video games that did get inducted into the World Video Game Hall of Fame this year? Here they are:
• Mortal Kombat -- that is the only arcade game to get into the World Video Game Hall of Fame in 2019. Through the years, various versions and titles of this game have been published on a range of different platforms. The first four incarnations, however, beginning in 1992, were arcade just.
• Microsoft Solitaire -- packed in the Windows operating system, it's been automatically installed on countless computers around the world. Since 1990, it has helped workplace workers pretend to be active and indoor playground equipment is now played 35 billion times annually.
• Super Mario Kart -- the fun and popular racing game that was first released in 1992.
• Colossal Cave Adventure -- an obscure (compared to another big gaming names mentioned in this article) text-based adventure game released in 1976. To play it, you write commands and there are no graphics. The aim is to find treasures and resolve puzzles.
Hopefully, Ms Pac-Man gets her opportunity next year. You don't have to wait until then to perform it however, particularly in the event that you've got your own arcade machine. Check out our range today.
